"Fight for words. Why are you arguing? You want to save face and suffer the consequences... No. It's the money that suffers." The money is gone and life has to be lived. So Ling Cang went to school as usual on Wednesday.
"Hey, what's the matter with you?" As soon as Shen Fanlei saw Ling Cang, she asked unhappily: "What have you been doing these two days? Why have you been absent from school?"
"Hey... so unlucky..." Ling Cang let out a long sigh and recounted what happened.
After hearing this, Shen Fanlei remained silent for a while. After a while, she smiled meaningfully: "I didn't expect that Sister Xuan, who is such a proud person, is quite interesting to you."
"What's the point."
"There are so many people pursuing Sister Xuan. They come from all backgrounds. She wants any car. Just say a word and the queue of people who will deliver it to her will be from the Jiang family mansion to our school." Shen Fanlei shook her head slightly. Then he said: "She will be short of your car."
"I think she is lacking."
"Then she has money herself. Why not buy it herself."
"Stingy."
"Are you pretending to be confused or are you really confused?" Shen Fanlei sighed softly. Shen Fanlei reminded again: "Sister Xuan has never seen such a famous car. She actually spent a whole day and a morning shopping with you in the car market."
"It's free."
"No. I think..." Shen Fanlei came over and looked at Ling Cang with a half-smile but said, "She seems to like you a little bit..."
"It's normal for me to like such an outstanding man." Ling Cang pushed back his hair and said very proudly, "This only shows that Jiang Wenxuan still has some taste for people."
"Hmph. Just blow it..." Shen Fanlei pursed her lips and said slightly unhappy: "I'm just saying it's a little bit. If you two want to be together, I'm afraid there's still a long way to go. But that's it. Come back. You can be considered capable. It’s just such an opportunity. I don’t know how many people are vying for it.”
"Why can't we be together?" Ling Cang snorted nonchalantly: "If I weren't afraid that you would be angry, I would have dealt with her long ago."
"Okay." Shen Fanlei patted the table lightly and told Ling Cang angrily: "Just go after her. If you can catch her, I will never object."
"real."
"Really. And I don't object to you being with other women."
"It's a deal." Ling Cang stretched out his little finger and said seriously: "Pull the hook."
"Pull, just pull."
"But having said that, if we really catch her, things will be a bit difficult..."
"You finally understand, right?" Shen Fanlei smiled: "It's not as easy as you think."
"You misunderstood. What I mean is that she is older than you, but you came in earlier than her, so it is not easy to arrange..." Ling Cang shook his head helplessly. His expression was very sad: "This is difficult. It’s really difficult.”
"I hate you. I'm ignoring you."
Although Shen Fanlei said that, after a while her anger subsided, and she started talking to Ling Cangzhong again. She has a more mature personality and rarely behaves like a girl of the same age.
Regarding Jiang Wenxuan's matter, she was actually saying angry words. But she didn't expect that this matter would eventually become true. Since she had already said it before, it was okay for her not to accept it.
But at this time, Ling Cang was nonchalantly arguing with Shen Fanlei. He was thinking about other things entirely. He was now worth more than two billion yuan, but he didn't even have enough cash in his pocket to eat. In such a bag, When I am shy, everything is just a cloud.
The two of them were chatting. The Chinese class started. Another teacher came in. Only then did Ling Cang know that Ling Lan had asked for sick leave.
After school, Ling Cang went to Sikong You's place, not to drink tea or to sort out his father's information, but to enjoy the autumn breeze and get some valuable things to exchange for money.
However, Sikong You seemed to be aware of Ling Cang's purpose. He collected all the valuable stones and tea sets and made tea for Ling Cang in an enamel jar worth five yuan each.
Disappointed, Ling Cang asked casually: "By the way, have you heard of Cai Dingyu?"
"The eldest son of the Lin'an Cai family. Didn't I tell you? There are three of the six major families in the south. Among them is the Lin'an Cai family. Their family has been working hard to develop in the north in recent years and has achieved very good results." Sikong You glanced at Ling Cang. A little curious, he asked: "Why did you suddenly think of asking this person?" Ling Cang didn't hide anything. He told the whole story of Li Gangmei's incident. Si Kongyou smiled after hearing this: "Actually, Cai Dingyu is pretty good. Most of the children from aristocratic families are romantic. He has only secretly dated a few women in the past few years. He has never had any big affairs."
"But the guy he hired is a bit too cute."
"At first glance, you have never had a breast. You are too unprofessional to talk." Sikong You smiled and shook his head. He told Ling Cang: "As long as you are good-looking and I like it, Cai Dingyu will do it. After two years of playing together, we can get together easily." It's easy to break up. Speaking of which, smart children from aristocratic families will do this, because most of their marriages are business or political marriages. It is impossible to just marry a woman home. If you find a shrewd one, you will find ways to become the wife of the aristocratic family, or work hard. Put the money in their own pockets. Do you think they can still sit on the Diaoyutai like they are now."
"It makes sense." Ling Cang thought of Jiang Mingxian and Zhao Xinru. He nodded with emotion: "When I get rich in the future, I will definitely buy more mistresses. Then you can teach me more experience. "
"By the way..." Sikong You had no reaction to this sentence. He did not lecture Ling Yang on how to be dedicated as he did in the past: "This Cai family has some connection with Long Jianyue."
"oh."
"The Cai family has lived on the southern coast. In the early years, many members of the family traveled across the ocean and went to Southeast Asia to develop. They came into contact with the Long family. The Long family arrived in Southeast Asia very early. They have a solid foundation and are very helpful to the Cai family. Later, the Long family came to the country, and the Cai family also fully supported it. Long Jianyue has achieved today's achievements and is inseparable from the Cai family."
"So that's it."
"Let's not talk about it for now. There is one more thing..." Sikong You took a sip of tea and spoke in a slow tone: "You don't have to worry about Ju Shui for the time being."
"What's wrong."
"This guy Sima Tian set up a trap to severely damage the Ju Shui Society..." Sikong You told Ling Cang about the raid on the Long Family Manor that day. He then concluded: "The Ju Shui Society's vitality is severely damaged. It is difficult to do anything in a short time. .”
"Sima Tian is really amazing."
"Of course. Although his role under your father is not a think tank, Sima Tian's strategic ability is quite outstanding." Sikong You smiled slightly: "I have heard of Kondo Yuichi a long time ago. One of the Three Feathered Birds of Kikusui. .Really an old fox.”
"What the hell is a three-feathered bird?"
"The Japanese say it means 'Three Heroes'."
"It's true that I can see birds."
"It doesn't matter what kind of bird he is. This man is quite cunning. But he set foot on the Chinese land full of ambition. Before he could do anything, he was defeated by Sima Tian. It is said that their family used to be samurai in decline. If he had some bushido spirit. You really should commit suicide."
"Speaking of which..." Ling Cang frowned and asked a little strangely: "Ju Shui Society seems to have a very sensitive intelligence network. Didn't you realize that Sima Tian and Long Jianyue were cooperating?"
"Sima Tian is used to walking alone, so it is difficult to track his whereabouts. If he is being monitored somewhere, it must be that he intentionally exposed himself." After a pause, Sikong You continued: "Long Jianyue doesn't know. At this point, I even sent people to monitor Sima Tian, but in the end it was all in vain."
"Really..." Ling Cang observed for a moment and found that Sikong You was not in the right mood today. There was a hint of sadness between his brows: "You have something on your mind."
Sikong You didn't say anything for a long time. It wasn't until Ling Cang asked again that he let out a long sigh and said, "Originally, I planned to investigate it thoroughly before telling you. Now that you've discovered it..."
"What on earth is going on?"
"This cooperation between Sima Tian and Long Jianyue reminds me of many things from that year..." Sikong You fiddled with the tea cup and said with deep eyes: "I said, the fundamental reason why Long Jianyue hates your father is because of Long Jian Death of the sea.”
"I know that."
"After your father and mother got married, Long Jianyue was looking for trouble everywhere. From shopping malls and politics to several sword fights. But now it seems that Long Jianyue was more angry at that time. Later, your father disappeared, and Long Jianyue became more and more arrogant. . She began to strike hard. Maybe she wanted to force your father out. But there was news at the time that your father wanted to teach this ignorant girl a lesson." Si Kongyou fell into deep thought about the past. His words sounded a bit like Said to himself: "Later, the country was going to carry out financial reform and bid for some projects. Because the profits were very huge, Chenyang International wanted to win it at that time. Long Jianyue instructed Long Jianhai to fight for it."
"Then they won."
"Yes. But the victory was not glorious. They bribed many high-ranking officials with huge sums of money to win the project. Many of these high-ranking officials later fled abroad with their money. As a result, the incident came to light. The disciplinary inspection team followed up and uncovered many major corruption cases. But Long Jian Yue is very capable. He actually escaped this disaster." After a pause, Sikong You continued: "On the day when Chenyang International's bid was announced, Long Jianhai was shot dead in his office."
"Oh. Plus there are such rumors outside. Long Jianyue will naturally doubt my father."
"That's right." Sikong You nodded heavily. The worry on his face became even more serious: "That's the problem. Chenyang International's failure actually had its own factors. Your father has gone into hiding. He didn't ask anything at all. I only told you before that everything should be stable and things should go with the flow. Don't force it. The person in charge of Chenyang International is Situ Dao. Because he didn't get instructions from your father and didn't dare to make his own decisions, the Long family took advantage of it."
"I understand. If my father really wanted to win this project, he would let Situ Dao attack with all his strength from the beginning."
"That's right. Another thing is that your father has always liked Long Jianhai and regarded him as his own brother. When Long Jianyue made trouble for your father, Long Jianhai also kept trying to dissuade him. Of course, they are siblings. Long Jianhai still has to listen to his sister in the end. But no matter what, your father should not kill Long Jianhai."
"I already know these things. I remember you also said that Long Jianhai's death may be related to the Illuminati."
"That's right. I have been investigating secretly over the years. Unfortunately, I have no clue. Just a few days ago, I had an idea and expanded the scope of the investigation."
"How to expand."
"Screen through all the people and things in the area around the murder scene. Even those that seem unrelated."
Ling Cang could imagine it without asking carefully. This is a very huge project. It has been so many years. The clues are already very vague. In addition, there are too many people and things to investigate. It is definitely not something that a few people can complete easily. .
But Ling Cang also knew that Sikong You drank tea and played with rocks here every day. In fact, he was doing many things at the same time. It seemed that he lived alone, but he had a huge intelligence network behind him. He might even directly lead a think tank. .But I have never seen it before.
"Clues found."
"I'm not sure yet..." After coughing twice, Si Kongyou continued: "Less than half an hour before Long Jianhai was killed, there was a gas explosion about one kilometer away. It was an accident. Many people died, including several foreigners. I obtained the relevant files on the aftermath from the relevant departments. I found that several foreigners seemed innocent. But through other sources, I learned that they all had Illuminati background."
Ling Cang smiled coldly: "It can't be a coincidence."
"If it's a coincidence, it's a bit too coincidental. Maybe the Illuminati had other things going on at the time. But appearing in that place at that time still makes people suspicious. But, there's only so much we know now. I'm doing more research. The investigation may have results soon, or it may never come." Shaking his head with emotion, Sikong You told Ling Cang: "The place where Long Jianhai was killed is the most prosperous CBD in the capital, and the surrounding population density is very high. Many different things happen every day. The reason why I noticed this explosion was just luck."
"luck."
"That's right. The government's handling at the time was very low-key. Everything was not disclosed to the public. But later someone revealed it. The Chinese who were killed were only compensated 100,000 each, but the foreigners were given 1 million. The result caused an uproar in public opinion. .I conducted an in-depth investigation because I was curious and wanted to know the final result."
Same life, different price. Similar things have not happened once. The handling of this accident back then is not surprising. It's just that Sikong You's investigation confirmed a previous theory of Ling Cang. Seemingly unrelated things in this world People and things are actually closely related to each other.
After chatting for a while, Ling Cang stood up and left. Before leaving, he warned: "Prepare more Yulu detoxifying pills next time."
"The amount I prepared is enough for you alone."
"I know. But this medicine is very delicious. I've become a little high and addicted recently."
